Received a shiny new 135QE today. Haven't mounted a scope yet but put 60 .30 pellets down range at spinners and cans using the opens and I can confirm that this thing is a blast. Didn't find it as hard to cock as I had read. Looking forward to seeing what it will do scoped. $261.50 from Midway with the birthday discount. It's a lot of gun for not a lot of money. Let me know if anyone else has tried one of these.Skip
